A couple of ways to cope with web browser version updates,<\/p>\n

Using the AUT\u2019s own JavaScript functions is one way to mitigate issues, let me explain..<\/p>\n

Depending on what type of application you are using, there can be custom JavaScript code running on your AUT<\/p>\n

For cases like on interacting with a certain control a custom written JavaScript method is called to collect some data and pass to an AJAX call.<\/p>\n

Think about it, wouldn\u2019t the developer be using some methods to write data in the fields? Or read data from them?<\/p>\n

In few cases they are the same as the Selenium library would use, however in a few cases there would be some custom methods,<\/p>\n

Written by the developer or provided by the framework.<\/p>\n

For instance, on entering data in an certain element on the web page, a JavaScript method is called parsing the data and sending an HTTP request.<\/p>\n

Now instead of trying to interact with the element through Selenium \/ other library, call the JavaScript method,<\/p>\n

Which is going to be called anyway on the mouse click \/ enter event, but can save you a lot of grief if Selenium has a hard time interacting with the element due to a browser update etc.<\/p>\n<\/div>
